A Beautiful yet, awakening day!

My Alarm rings, it's 5 AM,
I open my eyes,
After many days, I feel good about waking up,
I went into the other room,
My mom and dad were sleeping,
I feel light today, refreshing, as if am flying,
I opened the door without making noise,
I always loved watching early mornings, not so hot, yet warm, rising sun,
With its beautiful amalgam of yellow and red,
Cool breeze, chirping of birds, proudly standing tall trees,
makes me feel damn good about this day!
How did I miss these moments from almost an year, oh this sunrise,
In the lost thoughts, a puppy bark brings me back to the reality!
I need not worry now, my brother says he will bring home one,
Next month, after he comes back here after an year.
I wear my flipflops and head out for walking,
I don't remember, why I gave up on my walking.
Infact, I don't remember why I gave up on many things,
May be its time to hit on them once again, all of them!
I decided to go to "OUR" place.
You got it right, it's all commercialized now,
But I feel good here, remembering those wonderful moments!
Darkness of night, coolness of the breeze, craziness of being alone,
I recollect everything,
Come on, modernization doesn't modernize your brain, right?! Yeah!
It's been an hour,
It was time to go back, from where I came,
There is something special about this morning,
Wish I could figure out what it is,
Wish I could grab hold of this moment,
And keep it with me forever, you know, forever!
While going back home,
I went near those puppies outside my home,
Went really close to them,
They sat really close to each other,
To beat the cold I guess,
One of them is black, the other brown and the other one in white and brown patches.
I always had this affinity towards dogs don't know why.
I think I understand them haha,
Those innocently adorable eyes, those beautiful expressions, the way they loiter around, the way they search for food, I just love everything about them.
I remember when I was small,
The dog we used to feed everyday,
One day, sat near our doorstep, with an injury on its face, blood tripping from the wound,
I sat close to it, crying while cleaning its wound,
It was looking straight into my eyes,
And me blaming God, for what he did,
And from that day this love towards dogs has been growing along with me,
Now, here, as these puppies struggling to sleep, I leave with a smile and step towards my home.
There are many people,
There are loud noises,
My heart was beating at a faster rate than usual,
After receiving a hint of something unusual,
As I moved closer to my home,
The voices became more clearer and the scary thing was they were familiar too,
All these people gathered around,
I have never seen them before,
Some of them live around, I guess.
I went inside.
I saw my mom, crying inconsolably,
Saw my dad, standing beside her and lost somewhere,
I hurried to my mom, trying to comfort her,
And ask her what happened,
She ignored me,
She didn't even look at me,
I tried to talk to my dad,
Even he ignored me,
"Not again", I thought.
Feeling helpless, I looked around,
I tried to converse with the people around, no use.
I think, it's because of me, did I do something?
Why are they ignoring me?
Why aren't they answering me?
And many more questions started haunting me,
Feeling dejected, I walked into my room,
Into the darkness, I tried to switch on the light, I failed,
I thought there was some problem,
I looked on to my bed, searching for the phone,
To call my brother,
Someone's sleeping on my bed,
Looks familiar, very familiar,
Wait! Is it me? Yes, it's me!!!!
How could that be possible?
What am I then?
I tried to touch my body, failed.
I tried to push the one on bed, failed.
Then, the truth hits me hard,
Am dead!
With the gush of pain and numbness,
I cry out loud, with no tears ofcourse,
I remember the promises, the ones I made,
The ones others made,
The ones that were broken,
The ones that were waiting to be fulfilled,
The dreams, the wishes, and, and, the love, the eternity!!
Is this the end?
Is this the beginning of something else?
As these thoughts were haunting me,
I felt a sprinkle of water droplets on my face!
It was a dream! I take deep breath. 


Now, the question was,
Was it a Dream?
Or a step closer to my future?
Or a taste of forthcoming?!
Time is the answer!
But the truth is, I felt this dream,
I lived this dream!!
It's going to be with me for a long time,

Like a really, long time,
Or, may be forever!
